Ali Saad

Generally lean but has been in the weight room and carries very little bad weight. Will have to add some bulk and mass to be able to handle playing in the trenches at the Power 5 level. Very quick off the ball and gets a lot of upfield penetration. Does a good job with his hands -- is quick and violent with them. Also has good agility and can win with a spin move. It can be tough, as a result, for offensive linemen to get a good, clean punch in on him. Mainly, for him going forward, getting big enough and strong enough to hold at the point of attack is the biggest key. He will be able to make plays in the backfield with his quicks. He projects as three-tech or potentially an end in some schemes. Hard working kid whose intangibles should also help him make a college impact. Projects as a multi-year starter.
